SOC2069 Quantitative Datasets
Workshop data
trust_inequality.dta
This dataset combines data on “generalised/social trust” from the latest waves of the World Values Survey and the European Values Study with macro(country)-level data on World Development Indicators (WDI) provided by the World Bank. The main variables of interest taken from the WDI refer to measurements of economic inequality within countries. The dataset allows to replicate - using the latest available data - the analysis of the relationship between inequality and trust presented in Chapter 4 (“Community life and social relations”, pp. 49-62) of Wilkinson and Pickett (2010).
osterman_t3.dta
This dataset is the one used by Österman (2021) for the analysis underpinning the results reported in his Table 3 and related tables in the Online Supplementary Material. The aim of the article is to use information on educational reforms across European countries as a way to set up a quasi-experimental design testing the effect of education on social trust. With this approach, it aims to overcome the limitations of cross-sectional observational survey data from the European Social Survey by attempting a causal - rather than just correlational- explanation.
